A German court has ruled that a Nazi concentration camp memorial has the right to refuse entry to those wearing the Palestinian keffiyeh scarf.
The higher administrative court in the eastern state of Thuringia on Wednesday rejected a request from a woman to be allowed entry to the Buchenwald concentration camp memorial while wearing a keffiyeh.
“It is unquestionable that this would endanger the sense of security of many Jews, especially at this site,” the court said.
Regardless of anything else you might think, you just have to admit that this rationale is bullshit:
It is not unquestionable that wearing a keffiyeh would endanger anyone’s sense of security.
Argue about anything else, but you cannot actually defend that “it is unquestionable”.
